• Flaxseed Oil is an organic plant-based source of omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids.1 ** Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids helps support a healthy heart. Nature Made Flaxseed Oil provides 700 mg omega-3, 154 mg omega-6 and 168 mg omega-9.
• Flaxseed oil has a unique blend of the “good” fats: the essential polyunsaturated fatty acids alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) omega-3 and linoleic acid (LA) omega-6. Essential fatty acids must be consumed through food or supplements, as they cannot be made in the body. Approximately 45-52% of the fatty acids in flaxseed oil are ALA, making it the richest plant source of this essential omega-3 fatty acid.1
• Flaxseed comes from the flax plant, Linum usitatissimum, and is virtually indigestible in its whole form. Ground flaxseed provides dietary fiber, lignans, micronutrients and omega-3 fatty acids.1 Common food sources that contain ground flaxseeds include cereals, breads, and granola. Common food sources that are high in omega-6 include corn, soybean and sesame oils. For omega-9, it is olive and canola oils.
